The inhumane sport of underground dog fighting is a worldwide problem, and Filmmaker Kenny Young hopes to bring awareness to the issue with his animated feature film “Chance."

The goal of the film is to “humanize” it’s lead character, a pit bull who was forced into dog fighting as a puppy, in hopes that people will connect with his story and empathize with the pain that fighting dogs must endure.

“The dog fighting world is much bigger than I thought’’ says Young about what he learned while researching for the film, “it’s around the world, from every social status, rich people do it, poor people do it, it’s everywhere."

Young hopes to “give a voice to those without a voice and stop dog fighting” through a social media campaign to get 1 million views and 1 million likes on the ‘Chance’ trailer available here.
